URLs in HTML
|
|
|
|
|
Whether it is an HTML document, video, image or any other kind of data, every available resource on WWW has an address. This address can be encoded by a Universal Resource Locator or a URL.
Every web address is defined with respect to certain syntax rules.
Syntax: scheme://host.domain:port/path/filename
|
The very first piece of the syntax, the "scheme"represents the type of internet service being used. Though there are several types available, the most common type of internet service is http. |
|
|
|
|
The middle piece contains the "host, domain & port" representing, domain host, internet domain name & the port number at the host respectively.
The “path” defines the sub directory or path at the server. By default, the HTML document is located at the root directory of the website.
The last piece of the syntax contains the "filename" defining the name of the HTML document like, index.html or cover.asp, etc.
Common internet services or schemes include:
